Here is Annie's. (It has been edited on Photo Shop)
Here is mine. I was cooking last week and this is a photo of butter, golden syrup and sugar. I thought it all looked rather interesting together with the different colours. I also like it because all the ingredients are different. The butter is hard, the syrup is like a liquid and the sugar is like sand.

Another Update

Ok. Naomi and I lost hockey on the weekend. That is a good thing though. It means that our team has a better chance of winning the semi finals this weekend which therefore gives us a good chance on making it to the grand final. Last weekend we played the best team in the comp. We only lost 2-0, and one of their goals shouldn't have been allowed.

We went to church yesterday. We were there for a little longer then usual because the church computer was playing up and our Dad was fixing it up. Yesterday afternoon we played a little bit of cricket with our neighbour and another friend. When everyone got sick of that we started to play soccer. That was really fun. Then we did some goal shots. Naomi and our neighbour were the best goalies of the day. I was absolutely shocking.

And now I'm on my bed, with Naomi beside my still waking up and my little sister trying to get us to help her find her 'Dory Book' as she calls it, but it's really called Finding Nemo. This afternoon Naomi and I have hockey training, we are expecting it to be really full on with the semi finals approaching.

Hockey!

I just wanted to update you on our hockey.

We are doing really well. We are second on the ladder out of 4 teams. This week we are versing the best team in the comp. (They have been for many years). This weeks game is our last game before the semi finals. If we win this weeks game or draw with the other team we will need to play them in the semi's. If we loose we will verse the team at the bottom of the ladder.


We are most likely going to loose this week, but we most certainly won't be disappointed if we do.

I'll keep you updated as the weeks go on.

Aztec Feast!!

Sorry I haven't posted for a few days.

Our Aztec feast went really well. The soup was not nice at all. It was really hot and it had way to much onion in it. So we didn't have much at all.

(Sorry I don't have a photo of the avocado dip). Anyway, the Avocado dip was awesome! We had it with corn chips, salad and some flat bread.


The hot chocolate was a big success. It wasn't perfect but the flavour was really nice. It was just right to finish of the meal.

So that's how our feast went.

Aztec Feast!!

I'm really excited because tonight, Naomi and I are preparing an Aztec feast for the whole family.

First of we are going to be having a Aztec Bean soup. (Beans were one of the Aztecs main food supply). The we are having some Aztec avocado dip with corn chips and tortillas. (Aztecs grew and ate avocados and corn was another one of the main food supplies, they also made their own tortillas).
Then to finish of the night we are going to have some Mexican hot chocolate. (As most if us should know, the Aztecs were the ones who invented chocolate).

So there you have it. Naomi and I found all the recipes in an Aztec history book we were using.

I'm hopping to get some photos so I can put them on my blog but I might not be able to.

Cricket!

On Sunday this week Naomi and I have another cricket trial!

We have been practising a lot lately. I think we will do alright.
We are hoping to get into the team.

This year I'm playing U/14's in cricket. I think I will do alright. I won't be a star
player but I will do well.

This is only a very short post.

Anyway. Wish us luck for Sunday.

(I'll post Sunday night and tell you how we go)

I Won!

I (by some miracle) tied for first with Vellvin in CB's Who Is It contest.


Thanks CB for hosting this contest. It was great fun.

Well done to Vellvin too.

Another Update

I hope you guys aren't getting sick of these updates.

Over the last week we have been playing a lot of darts!! I'm getting better and better each day.

I played hockey today. My team won 1-0!!! We are really happy about that. Naomi and I only have 2 weeks of hockey left this season. This season I've been looking around for a stick that I could buy next season. I think I've found the one I want.
It's called the Mazon Fusion 1000. You can buy it in black or white. I would probably get it in black.

The cricket season starts soon too. We are not sure what age group we are going to play in though. My big brother who plays in U/16's says that Naomi and I have the size and strength fit for U/12's but he says we have the skill for U/14's. At this rate we will be playing U/14's but we are going to ask our coach from last year and see what he thinks. Here is a picture of the cricket bat I want to get.
It is called the Kookaburra Blade!! I really want to get it for this season because the bat we've got now isn't the best bat to be using in U/14's. Naomi and I have a cricket trial next week. We are a little bit nervous but we will do well.

My big brother has just got back from flying one of his remote controlled planes. By this sounds of things the prop snapped.

This has turned out to be more of a sport update hasn't it??

What's Been Happening

Here is an update on what I've been up to lately.

I've been doing my usual amount of school work. Lately in my maths I've been working on geometry. I haven't been enjoying it a whole lot but it's OK. I've lately started a high school English book because I'm not that good when it comes to punctuation and spelling. I haven't been doing a lot for history lately but I think I will need to do more next week. I had a big science test on Friday. I got 27 out of 30 questions right which I was rather pleased about.

My hockey is going well. I didn't go to training on Monday because I was sick but I was all better and right to play today. My team was versing the best team in the comp and we lost 4-1, usually they bet us by about eight points or so, so our team was rather pleased with the outcome of that game. I scored on half time so the goal didn't count, I was a bit disappointed about that but it can't be helped.

Today I went up to my Grandparents house with my dad, my little brother Tully, my little sister and Naomi to bring our big brother home. He had been staying with our Grandfather while our Granny had a little holiday.

During the week my brother Tully bought a dart board. It is really awesome. It took me a little while to get the hang of it again but by the end of the day I had mastered it, but I still have the odd time where I throw the dart and it misses the board completely. (LOL)

Naomi and Tully also made a little cubbie sort of thing. It is really quite cool. It has been constructed in just the right position so it works really well.

Naomi, Tully and I have also been playing a lot of touch and tackle footy with our neighbour and another friend. We had a game of tackle footy and it was me and Naomi vs Tully and his mate. Naomi and I beat them 5-1. They got sick of the game and stopped playing. Then the next day we played another game of tackle footy and it was Naomi, Tully and I vs our neighbour and our friend. (Their always saying how good they are at footy and things like that, so we put them to the test). My team won 8-4. So that was really fun!!!


That's an update on what has been happening in my life this week.
